The Railroad Adjustment and Taft Accord
The agreement between railroads and President Taft removes immediate rate hikes until the Interstate Commerce Commission rules, signaling a conciliatory shift. Railroads concede the delay, Wall Street reacts positively as the plan is abandoned, and the administration gains a strategic victory by pushing for commission scrutiny before any new rates take effect. The ICC’s upcoming review will test fairness, shifting proof of justness to the railroads and shaping the future of public service regulation.
